answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/11/2016 answer text <p>The House of Commons operates an onsite nursery, available to Members, their staff and staff of each House. Based on consultation with Members, the facility was specifically set up as a nursery, rather than a crèche, to meet the needs of Members and their children, some of whom might be facing long hours in a stranger’s care, reflecting Members’ work pressures.</p><p>Professor Sarah Childs’ report, ‘<em>The Good Parliament</em>’, includes a recommendation for a crèche as well as a nursery.
